Old Meets New in the Heart of Chester


The surrounding land provides a sense of tranquility to this stunning, historic Chester home.

Built in 1837, this remarkable, five-bedroom Colonial home includes more than eight acres of land on West Main Street in Chester. The prime location is just the beginning—the home has been extensively renovated.

Wide-board flooring and countless updates feature throughout the home. The fully updated, modern kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen opens onto a spacious, light-filled dining room, where French doors lead out to the patio. A library and a den are located off the dining room. On the other side of the house, a formal living room with one of this home’s two fireplaces connects to a screened patio area.

The first floor also includes a master bedroom. Four additional bedrooms—including a second master bedroom—and an office are found on the second floor.

The professionally landscaped property encompasses more than eight acres of level, lightly wooded grounds, complete with a garden area, a tree house, and a barn listed in the Connecticut Old Barn Registry. The home also includes a full basement with a workshop, an attic, and a three-car detached garage with storage.

This home is being offered for sale by William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty for $925,000. For more information or a showing, contact Lisa Tiezzi at 860-304-1788.
